Project4T
Project4T is Bristol’s monthly health and harm reduction drop-in open to all Trans+ folk.
Project4T is a monthly health and harm reduction drop-in for Trans+ people in Bristol.
The service is a collaboration between four local organisations: BDP’s LGBTQ+ service Prism, Dandelion, Changes Bristol, and Yuno Sexual Health.
This service is the first of its kind in Bristol, rooted in harm reduction and peer support.
What We Provide
- Injecting Equipment
- DIY HRT Harm Reduction Information
- Drug & Alcohol Support
- Sexual Health Testing
- LGBTQ+ Mental Health Peer Support
- Hormone & Health Blood Testing
Trans+ people often face barriers and a lack of specialist knowledge when accessing support services and healthcare.
This wraparound service will provide support for Trans+ people doing DIY HRT, led by the knowledge and experience of peers. This will include access to injecting equipment and DIY HRT harm reduction info. It will also offer culturally competent sexual health testing, drug and alcohol support and LGBTQ+ peer mental health support.
How It Works
This service is free, confidential and open to all Trans+ people. Simply drop in to access any of the support on offer.
Open on the last Wednesday of the month from 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm.

We offer 6 pre-bookable appointments between 6:30pm and 7:30pm, with walk-in slots available after that. The walk-in slots will be available on a first-come, first-served basis from our opening time at 6:30pm.

Enchanced Access Appointments (Hormone & Health Blood Testing)
We aim to make Project4T as accessible and trauma-informed as possible.
The space can be busy which can increase wait time and make the service inaccessible for some people.
We have a small number of out-of-hours appointments each month before the service opens for those who cannot attend the in-hours service due to access needs.
Please note, we have a very limited number of out-of-hours appointments that are for people unable to attend the in-hours service.
To book an Enhanced Access Appointment, use the booking form below.
